Rate My PC Build

[Guest]

Hey guys. I was just looking for some feedback on my recently acquired PC. I intend on using it for games such as Arma3 and Dayz (CPU intensive) but I also want to keep my options open for GPU intensive games such as the Witcher series. Any constructive comments and opinions are appreciated =-).

I7 6700K with an RX 480 is a very odd combination. The RX 480 isn't really high end, the i7 is as good as it gets, so that is kind of odd.

1000W is major overkill for this system, as is it would run on a quality 500W.

I don't like all the ibuypower fluff, this build should be around $800 without any peripherals.

4/10, and no im not jealous.

Give me a budget and i'll put together a much better build.
Once you get the parts get a local store to build it.

Definitely some mismatched parts. IBuyPower is not known for their quality. Depending on what you paid for it, I'd probably rate it 5.5/10 if you got a good deal. 4.5/10 if you spent too much.
